WHAT ARE THE CONCERNS? As mentioned earlier, there are health concerns associated with the use of chemical biocides in air duct cleaning. Exposure to the chemicals may result in respiratory, nerve system, eye, and skin problems. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulates chemical biocides and does not recommend their application in air duct cleaning unless specifically proven. It’s noteworthy mentioning that EPA has not approved any chemical biocide for use on fiberglass-lined ducts or fiberglass boards. So, check if the materials are present in your ducts before cleaning.
